Abstract

The change of the number of subcarriers in SEFDM signal from 5 to 1024 leads to the growth of the PAPR (peak-to-average power ratio) from 4.5 to 9 dB. PAPR of SEFDM signals stays about constant (instability is no more than 5%) while normalized subcarriers frequency spacing increase from 1/2 to 1. It indicates no additional energy loss during the transition from OFDM signals to SEFDM signals, caused by an increase in the PAPR. It is proposed to use a part of the resulting gain in the frequency band to reduce PAPR. The method, based on modification of Tone Insertion method, was developed. Developed method consists in adding additional subcarriers with randomly generated manipulation symbols to the SEFDM signal. SEFDM symbol with minimal PAPR is chosen to be send. According to this method the PAPR can be reduced in average of 1.4 dB. The degree of reduction of the PAPR depends on the size of the channel alphabet of additional subcarriers (changing of the average win is 0.6 dB for BPSK to 1.4 dB for QAM-64) and the number of combinations of symbols of additional subcarriers (1.6 dB for 1000 combinations for QAM-64). According to estimation of the FPGA resources for implementation of PAPR reduction algorithm it is required relatively small resource costs compared to the formation of SEFDM signal without reduction.
